Things that I didn't know were a thing until just now lol

No judgement, I'm just always amazed what I end up finding when I fall down the rabbit hole that is the internet lol

Meet Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

They are my Aldi Christmas succulents.

  With names like that, you'd think that if they can withstand fire, they can withstand living in our house.

Cut to I just came back from a three week vacation where I left specific watering instructions for The Hubster.  By specific, I mean last minute at the airport as he was dropping me off "oh, water the plants."  Now they look like they went through an actual fire lol 

Keep in mind that The Hubster is the guy who gives lasts rites when I put plants in our shopping cart.

Truth is, that before I left I had still been watering them; however, I wasn't really sure if they were still alive lol  But they were at least still green-ish when I was watering them!  Now Shadrach and Abednego are complete toast.  

Meshach has possibilities...who am I kidding...if he has any hope at survival I need to get him a foster home STAT lol

The truth of the matter is I have committed serial plantslaughter my whole life, and Aldi plants actually hold up longer that most.  I am a whiz though with bouquets!  I can keep a bouquet of dead plants looking alive and beautiful for weeks-and Aldi bouquets I can get away with a month!  And they even die pretty nice so sometimes I just leave em in the vase because Aldi's dead bouquets look better than my living plants lol

A sobering article for those that are not vaccinated.

Dr. Anita Sircar writes: If you believe you can ride out the pandemic without getting vaccinated, “you could not be more wrong. This virus will find you. I can pretty much guarantee we would have never met had you gotten vaccinated because you would have never been hospitalized. All of our COVID units are full and every single patient in them is unvaccinated. Numbers don’t lie. The vaccines work.”

Please get vaccinated 💜

RDJ CHALLENGE #11 "THAT'S ADEQUATE" REVIEW

Catching up on some of Robert Downey Jr's earlier films for the RDJ Challenge.  I found That's Adequate on YouTube. 

It was another 80s campy film.  It's an 80s mockumentary about a film studio.  It had an all-star cast; however, I couldn't really get through all of it.  I just wasn't in the mood for that goofy of a movie, so I just forwarded to RDJ's part lol

COMPLETE CHALLENGE INFO

PERFECTION

The game, not the state of completeness, flawlessness, or supreme excellence.

 I feel the name sets up unnecessary expectations for Game Night.

Also, it is basically the same as opening a can of biscuits and waiting for it to pop like a Jack In The Box, and scare the bejesus out of you!

KARENS

 I think it is funny that Karen's think they have it so bad.  Try having Darling Nikki sung to you multiple times a day during your formative years and see how that goes for emotional scarring lol
